The FBI claims a rifle was fired from 142 yards away at a UVU event.
So we did something no one else has done — we used the physics of light vs. sound across 6 independent cell phone recordings to measure the actual distance to the source.
Light arrives instantly. Sound at 343 m/s. The delay = the distance.
Expected delay at 142 yards: 379ms Measured delay: 35ms
It looks like the sound of the shot was merely sound effect used to make it appear Kirk was killed by a rifle shot from the roof. Imo, Bray’s work on the weapon used to kill Charlie is the best to date. ABN
…President Trump proactively secured the border, targeted narcotraffickers, confronted narcoterrorists, targeted Mexican drug cartel leadership, leveraged the DOJ to indict regional actors, pushed China out of control in the Panama Canal, took out Nicholas Maduro, took control of Venezuela oil production – both for the security of the U.S. and benefit of the Venezuelan people, removed the discounted oil benefit for China and reasserted stability in the Western hemisphere.
Then, with all that in place, he turned toward Iran…. but, proactively planned for a ‘Shield of the Americas Summit’ before the Iran operation began and scheduled it while Operation Epic Fury continues.
This is but a snippet from a longer article which is well-worth reading. I largely agree with the snippet above and with what Trump appears to be doing in the Western Hemisphere so far. The timing of Trump’s actions is also appropriate, but the author of this essay seems to agree with the attack on Iran. I respect the website this essay comes from and view it every day because it often has good insights into USA politics. At the same time, Jewish Supremacy and its roles in USA and US policy is never mentioned. This is unfortunate and could be due to habitual blinders or something else. In today’s world Jewish Supremacy and its terrible harms to USA and the world cannot reasonably be ignored. One could say that JS and its followers have the power and opportunity to conquer Iran and Russia, so let them do it. That is not an entirely irrational thing to say. I am not in that camp, but this is a Kill-Or-Be-Killed (KOBK) world at the top and that is how the world has always been. A KOBK analysis of what is happening is a deep and gruesome one, but KOBK is also the very nature of elite reality. JS and others going for world domination probably see themselves as Alexander the Great, which if they succeed would sort of be true. It’s always a good idea to see any event from all points of view, including the JS POV. ABN
Personally, I see all of the Abrahamic religious variations as being unwise and potentially dangerous.
All religions and extremist politics, such as communism and woke, occupy the top cognitive levels of the mind; and for that reason lend themselves to fanaticism and consensus bias.
Christian-Zionists and many evangelical sects have been infiltrated by Jewish Supremists, who even dare to change the Bible and its Christian interpretations.
Buddhism has its problems, but three features of Buddhism are very wise and largely protect the tradition: 1) Buddhism does not take any written words to be God’s words, and thus subject to fanatical misinterpretations. 2) The Buddha always said he was just a man and not a god. 3) It is considered very bad conduct for Buddhists to claim to be enlightened when they are not.
As for Buddhism being ‘Godless’, that’s not true. Buddhism holds the position of ‘having no belief’ about the nature of Ultimate Reality because to do so is to retreat from it. Humans are not smart enough to say what it is but can experience it.
Buddhism is a rich and ancient philosophy. It is the foundation of Greek skepticism, but not limited to skepticism’s intellectual paradigm. Pyrrho took what he could understand from Buddhist monks in Bactria about 100 years after the Buddha’s passing.
Buddhism: No scriptures claiming to be the Word of God. No proselytizing, only welcoming those who come on their own. Strong focus on individual responsibility, which prevents the weakness Buddhists perceive in Christians or the craziness we see in religious fanatics of all stripes.
I’m just one person. What I have written is an extemporaneous response to the videos above and how they capture a slice of the terrifying nonsense in the world today.
I know a good deal about Jewish Supremacy, so I write about it often. Gaza and the public assassination of Charlie Kirk, and now the Epstein files and war with Iran, have shown millions how our world really works, how evil has burrowed so deeply into all of our institutions. ABN
The Kurdish militias, based across the border in Iraq, began the offensive in northwestern Iran on Wednesday.
President Donald Trump on Sunday night spoke with the heads of Kurdish militant groups in Iraq to discuss the situation in Iran.
The CIA was exploring plans to arm the Kurdish forces with the aim of sparking a popular uprising in Iran, CNN reported Tuesday.
The Kurdish groups are widely seen as the most well-organized segment of the fragmented Iranian opposition and are believed to have thousands of trained fighters.
Their entry into the war could pose a significant challenge to the besieged authorities in Tehran and could also risk pulling Iraq further into the conflict.
Asked earlier about Kurdish involvement, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told reporters: ‘None of our objectives are premised on the support or the arming of any particular force.
‘So, what other entities may be doing, we’re aware of, but our objectives aren’t centered on that.’
My guess is the US/Israeli goal is to divide Iran into smaller nations, which will be easier for them to control, while also posing less of a threat to Israel. The Ukraine War has been a similar event in that the ultimate goal is to dismember Russia and divide it into smaller nations. ABN
UPDATE: Most analysts are saying it is not possible for Israel/USA to break up Iran into smaller countries. Or to do that to Russia. But the long-term NATO encroachment against Russia has fundamentally had that goal in mind since the fall of the Soviet Union. We see the same goal for Iran today. I do see how they have failed in Ukraine and are failing in Iran, but their ace card is to use nukes in Iran and see what happens after that vis-a-vis Russia. The elitists doing this are hellbent on world domination and are still going for it now, just as they have been all along. In their minds, there is nothing to stop them from using nukes. Indeed, it seems probable that their strategy is to allow Iran to cause so much damage in Israel and the Gulf states that using nukes will strike many as a good move. At the core of this onslaught lies Jewish Supremacy, a hardheaded self-deceiving fanatical meta-cognitive doctrine couched in intransigent religious terms. Thirty to fifty million Americans have fallen for it along with a majority of Jews, many of whom have deeply infiltrated USA. ABN
While reading David Deutsch’s The Beginning of Infinity, I came across the following sentence:
What is needed is a system that takes for granted that errors will occur, but corrects them once they do—a case of ‘problems are inevitable, but they are soluble’ at the lowest level of information-processing emergence. (p. 141)
This statement comes from the chapter “The Jump to Universality,” in which Deutsch argues that “error correction is essential in processes of potentially unlimited length.”
Error correction is fundamental to FIML practice. In fact, the nuts-and-bolts of FIML practice could be described as being little more than a method for correcting errors “at the lowest level of information-processing” during interpersonal communication. This level is “the lowest” because FIML deals primarily with very short segments of speech/communication. In many posts, we have called these segments “psychological morphemes” or the “smallest speech/communication error” we can reliably identify and agree upon with our partner.
If you try to tackle bigger errors—though this can be done sometimes—you frequently run into the problem of your subject becoming too vague or ill-defined to be rationally discussable.
I haven’t read enough of Deutsch’s book to be sure of what he means by “universality,” but I do think (at this point) that FIML is universal in the sense that it will clear up interpersonal communication errors between any two qualified partners. “Qualified” here means that partners care about each other, want to optimize their relationship, and have enough time to do FIML practice.
We all demand that our computers be error-free, that buildings and bridges be constructed without error, that science work with error-free data as much as possible. But when it comes to communication with the person we care about most, do we even talk about wanting a method of error correction, let alone actually using one?
You can’t correct big errors if you have no method for correcting errors that occur “at the lowest level of information-processing,” to use Deutsch’s phrase. Once you can correct errors at this level, you will find that you and your partner are much better able to tackle bigger questions/errors/complexes. This happens because having the ability to reliably do small error-correcting gives you the capacity to discuss bigger issues without getting lost in a thicket of small mistakes.
Your ability to talk to each other becomes “universal” in the sense that you can tackle any subject together and are not tethered to static ideas and assumptions about what either of you really “means.”
FIML does not tell you how to think or what to believe. In this sense, it is a universal system that allows you and your partner to explore existence in any way you choose.
To use Deutsch’s words again, “error correction is essential in processes of potentially unlimited length.” Your relationship with your partner can and should be a “processes of potentially unlimited” growth, and error correction is essential to that process.
This is oldish news but Dore puts it well. It is almost as likely that Ghislaine Maxwell is free as a bird and not in prison. Both of them were valuable members of the ruling elite and spent decades working for their tribe. To fake Epstein’s death is child’s play at those levels as is finding a live body-double to serve Ghislaine’s time. Just as they never went into Fort Knox to check on the gold, they will never check the DNA of Ghislaine’s body-double or Brigitte’s to determine her sex. Epstein’s body-double was quickly cremated.

BOMBSHELL: We Found the Money Trail Connecting Erika Kirk’s Family to DoD Military Tech Why is a $34M Fraud Associate Signing Lori Frantzve’s Defense Contracts?
EARLIER THIS WEEK: Candace Owens blew the lid off the Erpenbeck crime family connection, but the rabbit hole goes infinitely deeper. It leads straight into the military-industrial complex, Fort Huachuca, and the very drones spotted buzzing above Utah Valley University on the day Charlie Kirk was assassinated.
Here are the receipts proving that TPUSA is now in the hands of a family deeply embedded in federal defense contracting, organized fraud, and intelligence operations.
1* THE FRONT COMPANIES & CAGE CODES: Lori Frantzve (Erika Kirk’s mother) isn’t just a shady businesswoman—she is a registered U.S. defense contractor. She operates E3TEK Group, Inc. out of Scottsdale, AZ, under the Department of Defense CAGE Code 3J3R1. She also runs a subsidiary called AZ-TECH INTERNATIONAL, INC. Between these entities, Lori has quietly secured over $5 MILLION in estimated federal awards.
2* SELLING MILITARY DRONES: What exactly is Lori selling to the federal government? Military drones and defense tech (along with solar panels designated for Native American land).
Let’s connect the dots: On September 10, 2025, multiple witnesses reported unauthorized, military-style drones operating in the airspace around UVU during Charlie Kirk’s assassination. Erika Kirk’s mother is literally a multi-million-dollar government drone supplier. This is no longer just a coincidence.
3* “UNCLE RICK” IS ON THE PAYROLL: Remember Richard Erpenbeck? The man Erika calls “Uncle Rick,” whose brother served 20 years for a $34 million bank fraud scheme and whose father was convicted of a murder-for-hire plot?
Corporate filings for Lori’s defense subsidiaries explicitly list Richard Erpenbeck as a key associate. A family known for staggering financial fraud and burying cash on golf courses is now running multi-million dollar defense contracts and standing adjacent to the CEO of a billion-dollar conservative platform.
4* THE FORT HUACHUCA & INTELLIGENCE TIE-IN: Erika’s childhood “Tesseract” (Looking Glass) school was directly connected to Fort Huachuca, the U.S. Army Intelligence Center of Excellence. Witnesses already placed Erika, Brian Harpole, and Cabot Phillips at Fort Huachuca just days before the assassination.
Combine an Army Intelligence-vetted childhood, a mother selling military drones to the DoD, and a family history of racketeering, and the picture becomes terrifyingly clear. They are intelligence assets.
5* THE GRID COALITION: Lori’s companies are also deeply tied to the Secure the Grid coalition, involving established defense insiders like Frank Gaffney and Tommy Waller. They aren’t grassroots activists; they are entrenched military-industrial players who have successfully executed a hostile takeover of Charlie Kirk’s legacy.
TPUSA donors and the America First movement need to wake up. Charlie was an anti-war populist. His billion-dollar empire is now controlled by a family of defense contractors, fraudsters, and intelligence operatives.
There is an additional video with receipts at the link above that I am unable to post. The video above with Candace gives important background to this part of the story. ABN
The New York Times — not a Telegram channel, not a Russian state broadcaster, the New York Times — has published satellite imagery confirming what Iran said it was doing while Washington was busy telling you it wasn’t working. Every major US base across the Gulf. Systematically and methodically.
Bahrain, Fifth Fleet headquarters, the nerve centre of American naval power in the region. Al Udeid Qatar — already missing its $1.1 billion AN/TPY-2 radar. Camp Arifjan Kuwait. Ali Al Salem. Prince Sultan in Saudi Arabia. UAE facilities. SATCOM terminals destroyed. Radomes cracked open. Satellite dishes gone. Missile tracking infrastructure — the AN/TPY-2 radar systems that coordinate every Patriot and THAAD battery in theater — targeted with what the imagery confirms was not luck but architecture.
Iran didn’t just strike US bases. It mapped the communication and coordination layer that makes American missile defense function as a unified system and then it peeled it apart, base by base, across five countries simultaneously.
This is not retaliation but doctrine. Thirty years of studying exactly how the American military machine sees, communicates, and coordinates and then, when the moment came, going straight for the eyes. The interceptors are blind. The magazines are depleted. The Navy can’t guarantee escorts in the Strait. Raytheon is being summoned to emergency meetings. South Korea is sitting exposed. And the New York Times just put the satellite pictures on the front page.
Washington built the most expensive military architecture in human history. Iran just showed you the blueprint for how to dismantle it. This is not going according to plan.
‘This is not going according to plan’. Unless it is; in which case, the real plan is to disrupt the entire region in preparation for dismembering Iran and probably using nukes to do that. The deep plan appears to be break Iran into a number of smaller countries, each with its own ethnic or religious group. This will make the entire region much easier to control. Israel is surely planning to become the hegemon of the region with USA fully backing it. A similar plan is what they have wanted for Russia all along — smash it into numerous smaller states. The deep reason for the Ukraine War is to do that. What are their chances for pulling this off? Probably pretty good. ABN
Consider the severe economic body blows to China in the past 14 months.
♦ First blow, the Trump tariffs hit Beijing hardest. ♦ Second blow, the Beijing tentacle on the Panama Canal is severed. ♦ Third blow, global tariff threats changed the risk dynamic for southeast Asia countries who acted as transnational shippers for China. ♦ Fourth blow, cheap sanctioned oil from Venezuela was cut-off. ♦ Now, the fifth blow; cheap, sanctioned Iranian oil is disrupted.
It’s not just a factor of oil flow, but also the price that China will ultimately end up having to pay. Beijing was buying oil from Venezuela, Iran and Russia at steep discounts because their purchases were skirting western sanctions.
With Iranian oil production now no longer a market option, China will seek to replace their needs with more Russian alternative. However, that diversion means the oil India was purchasing from Russia will come at a higher price, and the refined final product that was exported by India will arrive to the European Union carrying an additional cost.
Simultaneously, Vladimir Putin was asked about Russia’s lack of military support to Iran in response to the U.S. military action, to wit the Russian president noted the technical terms of their joint military agreements did not include Russia’s immediate involvement. In shorthand, Russia is busy and is not getting involved.
Russia was/is partially dependent on receiving military supplies from Iran in exchange for oil transfers. The military component is reported to include drones from Iran for use in the Ukraine conflict. Now that exchange profile is shuttered.
Taking Iran’s malign influence off the geopolitical chessboard is beginning to surface in major challenges to the BRICS assembly (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa). Russia, China and India are impacted directly.
The BRICS nations were skirting western oil sanctions by trading the commodity outside the petrodollar structure. However, President Trump now controls the flow of oil from Venezuela, and his administration controls the currency in which it is sold.
With Iranian oil removed from the non-petro supply chain, the only remaining non-petro oil producer is Russia – who is simultaneously hit with a loss in military hardware support. China may end up as a larger oil customer to Russia, but at what price and in what payment structure.
With global oil supplies in a state of flux, and with the USA in control of the oil flow from Venezuela, North America is certainly in the best position for minimal energy disruption.
Asia is heavily dependent on oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, and the majority of Europe has already shut themselves off from Russian oil production, putting themselves in a position of dependency to the global markets. The short-term ramifications of this oil disruption hit China, Southeast Asia, Japan and Europe particularly hard.
Gulf states facing an Iranian drone blitz may only have enough anti-drone defence missiles to last four days.
In a tactic that has surprised the US and its allies, Iran has responded to attempts to force regime change by raining down missiles and drones on its neighbours.
By spreading strikes across more than five countries at once and sustaining over 2,500 drones per day, Tehran is forcing its adversaries to divide their defences.
A source told the Daily Mail: ‘At the current rates the supplies could run out within four days.
‘The interceptors are being used at an unprecedented speed.’
The vast majority of Iranian projectiles have been blocked, but only a few need to breach the defences of Gulf nations to change the perception of the conflict.
That was brought home last night as footage of a thunderous explosion outside the US consulate in Dubai was shared online.
Shahed drones favoured by Iran can be produced more cheaply than the state-of-the-art defensive systems purchased by the UAE, Bahrain and other states from US manufacturers.
A single Iranian drone can cost as little as £26,000 to produce, researchers say, while intercepting it can cost anywhere up to £3million.
Iran’s strategy of ‘flooding the zone’ with drones and missiles seems beyond obvious. Moreover, there are articles from years ago on their underground missile storage sites scattered across the country. So, USA and Israel had to know about this. Then they must have prepared for it. If so, these stories about insufficient anti-drone and anti-missile ordnance must be a ruse. If USA and Israel knew and did not prepare for this, that is too stupid for words. I do not know what the story is, but weapons supplies are major strategic factors, so this cannot be attributed to confusion or the fog of war. If the purported lack of anti-drones is a strategic ruse on the part of USA and Israel, I wonder what purpose it serves. It may be that, USA and Israel want Iran to cause massive destruction throughout the region, thus setting up Israel, and maybe USA, to use nukes against Iran. That is probably what they are doing. It’s a sort of contrived or concealed false-flag against themselves to win public approval for nuking Iran. Using nukes against Iran will send a strong warning to Russia, China and the world. ABN
Iran’s underground and hidden missile reserves are a cornerstone of its military strategy, designed to survive and retaliate against large-scale attacks. The country has developed extensive “missile cities”—vast underground complexes excavated deep into mountains, some reaching 500 meters below ground—to store and launch ballistic missiles and drones. These facilities, scattered across provinces like Lorestan, East Azerbaijan, Isfahan, and Kermanshah, house long-range missiles such as the Shahab-3, Sejil, and Khorramshahr, with ranges up to 2,000 km (1,242 miles).
Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) unveiled one of its largest underground missile cities on Tuesday, March 25. | IRNA/IRNA
Key sites include:
Khorramabad (Lorestan): A major storage and launch site for surface-to-surface and cruise missiles.
Tabriz (East Azerbaijan): Iran’s second-largest missile silo complex, capable of launching missiles toward Eastern Europe.
Isfahan: Home to the largest missile assembly and production site, producing components and missiles like the Shahab-3.
Kermanshah: Hosts the Bakhtaran and Panj Pelleh bases, strategically positioned to target Israel and Gulf states.
Iran has also constructed underground naval missile bases in southern Iran and the Gulf, with one unveiled in 2025. These facilities are often accessed through concealed entrances and protected by multiple layers of bunkers and berms. Despite their resilience, analysts highlight a critical vulnerability: many of these tunnels store munitions in open caverns without blast doors or separated revetments, making them susceptible to catastrophic chain reactions if breached.
While Israel and the U.S. have targeted these sites in recent airstrikes—damaging facilities like the Tabriz base—Iran continues to maintain a large stockpile of over 3,000 ballistic missiles, with about 2,000 capable of reaching neighboring countries. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Aerospace Force (IRGC-AF) uses these hidden reserves as part of a “war of salvos” strategy, aiming to overwhelm enemy missile defenses and increase the cost of military operations.
